Possible Causes

High ambient humidity, Door gasket not sealing, Frequent door openings, Door glass insulation failure

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Wipe up condensation promptly to avoid slipping hazards. Unplug the unit before gasket adjustments.

Steps to reduce condensation:

  • Check ambient conditions: If the cooler is in a very humid room (e.g., near a dishwasher or in a damp basement), consider moving it to a drier location or using a room dehumidifier.
  • Inspect door gasket: Ensure the gasket seals fully around the door. Replace the NewAir door gasket if it is damaged or warped.
  • Limit door openings: Minimize how often and how long the door is opened, especially in humid environments.
  • Check door glass: If condensation forms between the glass panes, the door’s insulating seal may have failed. In that case, replace the NewAir complete door assembly.

Note: Some light condensation on the glass in humid weather is normal, but heavy or persistent moisture indicates a sealing or environmental issue.
